POPE, AND THE OTHER RELIGIOUS LEADERS USELESS TO PROTECT AND TAME THEIR FLOCK.

…AS THE
WORLD CONTINUES TO BE DESTROYED, ONE COUNTRY AT A TIME, THANKS TO AMERICA
AND THE WEST.

By
Mansor Puteh

It seems
that the Roman Catholic Popes have all failed to stop any war from breaking
despite the pleas they had made to the leaders of countries who are Catholic or
Christian. The popes could not do much.

Newly
elected Pope Francis from Argentina, who may not be ‘Petrus Romanus’ according
to seer, Saint Malachai, gave his first speech on Easter, but he did not say
much other than to say things which anyone who is not pope could come up with;
he spoke like a pseudo-politician, and visionary asking for no one to solve the
problems of the world centering in the Middle East, Iraq, Syria and some other
places.

He did
not blame those who claim to be Christians and Jews who are responsible for
what is happening in those countries and elsewhere.

In fact,
his first sermon at the Basilica
Square was not one, but a short press statement,
which was not directed to the flock.

Maybe
Pope Francis knew his position as pope is not an influential one that he cannot
tell any Christian or Catholic, never mind the political or military leaders
what to do because they subscribe to Secularism despite claiming to be
Christians or Catholics.

But he
did get some media coverage being the first pope from South
America to hold the post at age, seventy-six.

This is despite the fact that many believe and think that he is influential
especially on the 1.1 billion people around the world who are said to process
the religion.

Unfortunately,
the number can be inflated based on some wild guess, as there are many of them
who claim to be Christians or Catholics but who are actually still pagans.

They are pagans when the time comes for celebrating the pagan gods, and
Christians or Catholics when it comes for Christmas, St. Valentine’s Day and
other festivities.

The Vatican doesn’t
seem to care; they do not seem to mind as long as their believers say they are
Catholic or Christians.

But the
size of the people who flock to Basilica
Square in the Vatican is small. And they comprise
mostly of the foreign tourists. The locals have gotten used to attending public
mass and hearing the pope give his sermon.

There
could be some individuals who go to the square for other reasons, which is to
harm the pope, so they can get in the limelight for a while.

But Pope
Francis doesn’t seem to care about such eventuality from happening as he
rejected standing in the pope-mobile that some of his predecessors had been
driven in public.

The
Buddhist and Hindu priests too have failed to stop the carnage that happen in
the countries which are Hindu and Buddhists, such as in Myanmar, Thailand
and Nepal
and so on.

Buddhists
and Hindus do not really have a single person as their world leader, or a group
or committee of religious elders who can pass judgment on the behaviors of the
believers of these two ancient religions, and who can also interpret what their
sacred text mean.

No
wonder Hinduism and Buddhism can be used for different purposes by different
communities and in different countries, with those in Bali, Indonesia
having their own brand of Hinduism which they call Bali-Hinduism.

And no
wonder the statue of Lord Buddha does not look Indian but Chinese or oriental,
which the Buddhists in Sri Lanka and India do not pray to as it would seem odd
to them to have to pray before statues of the Chinese-looking Buddha.

The
Muslim religious leaders too cannot do much to stop the Arabs from destroying
their own countries and also economy.

The
University of Al-Azhar in Cairo,
is said to be the oldest university in the world. But who have they created to
become world leaders for Islam, that the others around the world can obey any
pronouncements they make?

In fact,
Egypt
where this university is at, is now being destroyed by those who claim to be
Muslims.

And
there is nothing that the important ulama of this country could do. They may be
important but they are also not influential enough to be able to lead the flock
of Muslims in Egypt
to drop down arms and seek peace amongst themselves.

Where is
the influence of the Muslim ulama in the countries in the Middle
East? None whatsoever.

In Myanmar and Thailand,
the Buddhists seem to have a good day massacring Muslim Rakhines and the Muslim
Pattanis like they have been doing for many decades which forced many of the
Muslims to flee to Malaysia,
with some being resettled in third countries in the west.

It is
also ironic how there are now so many Buddhists from Myanmar
who have also left the country to come to Malaysia to seek employment working
in the factories.

The Buddhists in Myanmar are
not fascinated with their Muslim community, yet, they would come to Malaysia to
seek economic salvation. Here they know the Malaysian-Muslims do not harm them.

In Malaysia, Islam
is being used by an opposition political party leaders to divide the majority
Melayu-Muslims, by citing their own versions and interpretations of the verses
from the Holy Koran and for elevating their status to that of the ultimate and
most high Islamic leaders.

This is despite the fact that their party was trounced in the general elections
again and again.

Despite
that they still claim to be the ultimate leaders of Islam in Malaysia so
they can issue fatwa as they please.

The
former popes had tried their level best to stop America
and its western allies from launching attacks on Afghanistan
and Iraq,
but they failed miserably.

Pope
Francis commented on the political disturbances in the countries in the world,
but he cannot change the course or to stop them.

American
political and military leaders are mostly Christians or Catholics with some who
may be atheists, so they do not have any need to listen to the former popes,
John-Paul I and John-Paul II.

This is despite that the American presidents would often make the beeline to
the Vatican
to pay homage to them.

But it
turns out that it is just for a photo opportunity and not to seek his advice.
